ISN’T IT ROMANTIC [2019, B] – Narrative quickly runs out, but then commits to the film’s premise (cinematography! production design! music!) and allows Wilson to shine as a rom-com lead. Occasionally endangers itself in falling to the tropes it’s parodying, but Wilson’s a keeper.

ON THE BASIS OF SEX [2018, B] – Succeeds more as time capsule of gender struggle than as clear-eyed portrait. On the verge of making its subject saint-like. Economically visualized. Musical machinations obvious at times. Jones in top form, bringing necessary gusto. I teared up.
